Attorneys for Home Depot’s public-relations firm, Dakota Communications, have sent letters to two Sunland-Tujunga residents asking them to remove from a Web site an internal memo outlining a strategy to stack the City Council chambers with supporters. Kerry Cavanaugh in the Daily News.

The memo from Dakota Communications Principal Rick Taylor to Home Depot managers was obtained by the Daily News and posted on www.dailynews.com.

On Saturday, attorneys for Dakota Communications sent cease-and-desist letters to Joe Barrett, who had posted the memo on the Web site for his group, No Home Depot, and Doc DeMulle, editor and publisher of The Foothills Paper. DeMulle said he still plans to publish a copy of the memo in his paper this week.
